Suggest a topic
Propose a full dashboard idea with multiple indicators, charts, explanations, methodology, and analyst notes.
Example: India Balance of PaymentsCollaborate with Exalytics
Bring the economic idea. We will help turn it into a data product.
Analysts, economists, journalists, researchers, and subject matter experts can suggest new topics or individual series. When a topic you proposed is published, you are credited on it and you share in what it earns.
Two ways to collaborate
Suggest new data work, or reuse published charts.
Topics are deeper analytical packages. Series are simpler chart-first indicators. Chart reuse helps writers embed or reference visuals with clear attribution.
Suggest a series
Recommend one economic indicator that deserves a simple trend chart and source context.
Example: JOLTS job openingsUse our charts
Request chart reuse for a journalist page, blog, newsletter, classroom note, or research explainer.
Includes attribution and source contextHow collaboration works
From idea to published dashboard
We keep the process structured so the final page is useful, credible, and maintainable as new data becomes available.
- 1
Submit the idea
Share the question, country, source, and why the topic or series matters.
- 2
Define the data plan
We agree on indicators, units, frequency, update cadence, and source metadata.
- 3
Build the chart package
Exalytics creates the data model, charts, notes, and dashboard layout.
- 4
Review and publish
Human review checks the interpretation before publishing or enabling reuse.
Revenue sharing
You are paid from what your topic actually earns.
Subscription revenue is pooled, then attributed to topics by how much each one is genuinely read — the same principle a streaming service uses for plays. Your share follows your topics, not a flat fee.
Propose
You submit the question, the source, and how the indicator is built. Nothing is owed at this stage, and you keep your name on the idea.
Get credited
When we accept the proposal you become a credited collaborator on that topic, named on its public page, with a share of that topic's pool recorded against your account.
Become the editor
Once your topic is published and working, you can take it on as its editor — reviewing each Agent draft and publishing the analysis yourself. Most collaborators and editors are the same person, and editing carries the larger share because it is ongoing work.
Earn as it is read
Each period, the pool is split across topics by readership and then across the people credited on each topic. Your split is visible to you and to the administrator, and it changes only by agreement.
Percentages are recorded per topic and per person, so a topic with a collaborator, a contributing analyst, and an editor can be split three ways. A published topic keeps paying its collaborator even after someone else takes over the editing.
Proposal intake
Tell us what you want to build together.
Everything here goes straight into the editorial review queue. The more precisely you describe the source and the method, the faster an editor can judge whether we can build it.
For chart reuse
Include the chart or series name, your publication/blog URL, expected use, and whether you need an image, embed, or source citation block. Put that in the source and method fields below.
What happens next
An editor reviews every submission. If we take it forward we contact you at the address you give us, agree the data plan, and credit you on the topic when it publishes.
